Abstract: For some video processing applications, most notably watermark detection (40), it is necessary to add or average (parts of) the two interlaced fields which make up a frame. This operation is not trivial in the MPEG domain due to the existence of frame-encoded DCT blocks. The invention provides a method and arrangement for adding the fields without requiring a frame memory or an on-the-fly inverse DCT. To this end, the mathematically required operations of inverse vertical DCT (321) and addition (322) are combined with a basis transform (323). The basis transform is chosen to be such that the combined operation is physically replaced by multiplication with a sparse matrix (32). Said sparse matrix multiplication can easily be executed on-the-fly. The inverse basis transform (35) is postponed until after the desired addition (33, 34) has been completed.

Abstract: The inventive firing device ( 1 ) comprises a cartridge reception unit ( 11 ) in which each of several cartridges ( 3 a to 3 d) is provided with one propellant ( 132 ) and is interchangeably disposed in one reception chamber ( 9 ), and a cover part ( 7 ) closing the rear section of the device by means of which cartridges can be replaced. A fluid and/or powdered substance ( 14 ) that can be propelled by means of the triggered propellant ( 132 ) is stored in each cartridge. Triggering units for the cartridges ( 3 a- 3 d) which can be activated sequentially by a trigger element ( 21 ) are disposed in the cover part ( 7 ). In order not to harm the user when replacing cartridges, the cartridge reception unit ( 11 ) and the top part of each cartridge are aligned with each other so as to seal the cartridge area ( 9 ) at least following the firing of the cartridge, thereby leaving no substantial quantity of the substance ( 14 ) in the firing device ( 1 ) outside the cartridges ( 3 a- 3 d).

Abstract: Ring-shaped resonant elements include respectively conductor lines 2a, 2b, and 2c each formed on a substrate 1 along a full one turn of circumferential length of a ring. Each of the conductor lines 2a, 2b, and 2c has two end portions which additionally extend and which are located such that they closely adjoin each other in a width direction. The respective ring-shaped resonant elements are disposed in a concentric fashion. Capacitive parts are formed in areas in which two ends of respective conductor lines are located in close proximity to each other, and the other parts of the respective conductor lines function as inductive parts. Each conductor line operates as a half-wave transmission line whose both ends are electrically open. It is not needed to form a ground electrode on a surface of the substrate opposite to the surface on which the conductor lines are formed. Thus, a resonator can be formed using a very small number of constituent elements. A resonator, a filter, a duplexer, and a communication apparatus having a small size and a high conductor Q-factor can be produced at reasonably low cost. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a metal strip by continuously casting a molten bath between two casting cylinders (1, 2) of a continuous casting machine. According to said method, a surface current of the inclusions or impurities present on top of the bath is generated by injecting gas into the surface of the molten bath (4a). The injection of gas transports those inclusions or impurities laterally against the lateral seals (3). For this purpose, a device (25) is provided that has at least one gas channel (35, 36; 52) disposed above the surface of the molten bath (4a) and extending in the longitudinal direction of the casting cylinders (1, 2). Said channel has a number of outlet openings (46; 55) that are distributed across its entire length and that are directed downward at an angle and towards the next lateral seal (3). Said device makes it possible to keep the impurities from at least a larger part of the cast strip, thereby increasing purity of the strip.

Abstract: The invention relates to an artificial joint (3), designed in particular to replace a talocrural joint. Said joint comprises a first primary joint surface (1) that forms an articular fossa (4), designed to replace in particular the tibia and that consists of concave curvatures running parallel to a primary function plane of the joint (3), which corresponds to the sagittal plane and comprises a second primary joint surface (2), which co-operates with the first primary joint surface (1) as a component of a condyle (5) that replaces in particular the talus and has convex curvatures (7, 8, 9, 10) on the primary function plane that are adapted to the first primary joint surface (1). The aim of the invention is to obtain a high stress resistance and optimal mobility of the joint (3), subject to the respective joint position. To achieve this, the radii of the curvatures (7, 8, 9, 10) are calculated in such a way that the differential amounts arising between the corresponding radii of the first primary joint surface (1) and the second primary joint surface (2) in an ascending angular position (V) in relation to a descending angular position and also simultaneously between a medial face (11) and a lateral face (12) of the joint (3) deviate from one another.

Abstract: An RF power amplifier having reduced memory effects is disclosed. This is achieved by a novel design of the DC supply feed network to achieve low impedance across video frequencies, whilst maintaining the correct RF output matching. One or more transmission zeros are provided in the bias circuit transfer function, which are positioned in the video bandwidth so as to provide low and relatively constant impedance across the video bandwidth. Also, a parallel DC feed line may be employed to reduce impedance across the video bandwidth. The reduction in memory effects allows improved performance of predistortion linearization techniques and an implementation in a feed forward amplifier employing predistortion linearization is also disclosed.
